Barcelona
 
Usually on the Far East or Portugal forums but want to do a 3 or 4 night visit to Barcelona.

Any recommendations for places to stay which are value for money.

We don't like to spend too much on accommodation.
Rather spend it elsewhere.

As long as the accommodation is clean, then it suits us;)

Thanks in advance, hopefully.

Re: Barcelona
 
It depends on your situation. For example what might suit a young, single person may not suit an older couple etc....

Anyhoo...

Going down Ramblas on the left side in the Barrio Gotic there are a number of pensions which are well priced. They are clean but not exactly modern. However, I'd recommend that if you are going for a few days try specialist sites like atrapalo or lastminute etc (or google cheap accommodation Barcelona) and you should be able to find a good deal in a fairly decent hotel.

I really must have got your goat.:thumbsup:

But as you are no doubt aware the two requests were really totally different.
And I did search the Spain archives before I posted, all the way back to early 2007.
And I haven't been to Barcelona for over 40 years.

But never mind.

Here's the link for anyone interested.

I bet Mitzytboy has been waiting and waiting for me to ask a question:D:rofl:

(link removed)

Anyway, thanks for the replies above.

I suppose now Mbs put the mockers on it that'll be my lot.

But thanks again.

Hey :D
No you didn't get my goat, and no I haven't done anything to put the mockers on things. People on this form are a very helpful lot and will go out of their way to give you info if they can, as I would do if indeed If I had the answer to what you wanted ;):) Just thought it was a bit ironic :D
